Flight operations have resumed at the Murtala Muhammed
International Airport, Lagos, after the removal of a mangled body on the
runway.
A source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, hinted that
full flight operations have resumed after the runway was cleared of the mangled
corpse of a yet-to-be-identified man.
The international wing of MMIA,
Lagos, was temporarily shut in the early hours of Thursday after the mangled
body of a dead man was found on Runway 18R.
Airport officials said the corpse was suddenly found on
Runway 18R during a routine runway inspection by FAAN personnel.
However, airport officials had told our correspondent that
the runway was temporarily shut down while a team of officials from the Federal
Airports Authority of Nigeria and the Nigeria Police Force evacuated the corpse
from the runway.
During the temporary shutdown of the runway, international
flights were prevented from landing and taking off from the airport’s
international terminal.
